The $5K a year just gives you a $300 per person per visit discount. So pays itself back in 15 visits or so.

Under socialism, they don't permit all these add-on fees and services. It's all bundled together. With your food.

You did want food, didn't you? Welcome to your city-owned supermarket.

... all the V2V and V2X telematics that the experts have promised? Oh, that's right. This stuff won't work unless 100% of the traffic adopts the protocols. Poor people, say goodby to your 10 year old sedan*.

Seriously, it's just a matter of installing Opticom receivers on autonomous vehicles. Or a radar detector receiver that can handle SWS (Safety Warning System) messages. And then put transmitters in emergency vehicles.

*Basing traffic safety on V2V/V2X communications is a lost cause. Because bicycles won't have them. And homeless bums wandering aimlessly through traffic won't either. But I'm repeating myself.

Python is capitalized. So you must be referring to the programming language. And the correct answer would be: four tabs.

Whilst I'm no fan of the uber wealthy (I'm not at the point of saying we should eat them, but we do need to tax and control them better before we are at that point) this is actually a more sound business move. Most large airports have a "hidden" private terminal that the wealthy can use to avoid the hoi-polloi. London Heathrow has one, it costs £2,500 a person and that's just paid to the airport. In effect it ends up subsidising the other airport operations (better than having overpriced restaurants and LHR is one of the few airports where eating there doesn't cost an arm and a leg).

LHR doesn't handle GA so that's 2,500 quid for getting on a commercial flight. Private aviation in London is served by other airports like Farnborough.

With SFO, I suspect the problem is that they don't have a lot of room to expand.

However back in the real world, in the US deistically the rich count far more than the average person, when it comes to the government, hence why so many in the government kowtow to them.

They might only get one vote themselves, but enough money means you can buy the votes of others, by hook or by crook if necessary (The whole reason for Fox News' existence is to control who people vote for by limiting the information they receive). At that point, they also get to dictate policy.

We feed it false information. Pet rocks are coming back! Zuckerberg goes long on gravel pits.

... to answer the Zen question: What better search engines are out there?

Plenty of us nerds can afford this and want to see news about this.

Yes, lets.

Thats the thing, people are buying consoles thinking it'll be cheaper... well at least they think they are.

With Consoles, you pay less for the hardware initially but then pay through the nose for everything else. Pay for multiplayer and online access, pay for replacement controllers (Sony can fix the stick drift, they just don't want to lose the extra revenue from £60 controllers), you pay more for games.

PC is the opposite, you pay full price for the hardware as no-one is subsidising it, then your savings start immediately, games are cheaper and go on sale more often, hardware actually lasts (I've a £30 mouse that's approaching it's 10th birthday and still going), you don't pay for online access and what's better is that we have actual competition, not one gatekeeping corporation.

If you play games, the price difference between a PS5 and a mid range gaming PC is made up in less than 2 years... and it's only that long if you don't play a lot of games.

However people are stupid, so they get suckered in by the low sticker price. Even when they're outright told this will be more expensive in the long run (years ago, UK stores had to put "per unit" pricing on the shelves, so £ per 100ml or similar, people still buy the more expensive option).

This, sometimes I am looking for cheap, no-name products. I really don't care who made my bin bags as long as they fit in the bin and aren't a total PITA to open. It's going to be the same terrible quality as you get from the supermarket but saves me a trip.

What I'm concerned about is, is that Panaphonics TV I'm buying a genuine Panaphonics TV? That's when you have to check it's not being sold by Dongfeng or XSFCDWS.
